I've just purchased a RF50K5960S8-EU Fridge-Freezer and have been scratching my head about the Cool Select Plus interchangeable temperature zone. The User Manual (both the printed version and online ones are identical) is poorly translated from (presumably) the original Korean and at various points, when describing the four interchangeable temperature options, describes these as 'Freezing', 'Dry and fresh', 'Ecologically fresh', and 'Refrigeration' (although in 2 places in the manual they have made a clear error and printed 'Freezing' a second time instead of 'Refrigeration'). But at other points in the text of the manual, and also in the diagrams and on the fridge control panel itself (which are visible only when the Cool Select+ button is pressed), the for temperature options are listed as 'Freezing', 'Soft Freezing', 'Chill' and 'Cool'.
After an hour of confusion and fruitless searches through the FAQs, I have concluded that these two lists are entirely equivalent. I suspect that users had complained that they had no idea what 'Dry and fresh' or 'Ecologically fresh' actually meant in terms of temperature, so they changed the descriptions, but have forgotten to change these throughout the manual. It is very slapdash and not a good introduction to a £1000 product. Why can't a multi-billion pound multinational company employ people who can translate accurately and proof-read the text of the manual thoroughly ?
The actual question I was trying to answer regarding the functioning of the Cool Select Plus zone is how long it takes (with the compartment empty) for the temperature to adjust from the coldest to the least cold setting and vice-versa ? There's nothing about this in the manual either. And whilst the Control Panel displays a current temperature for the fridge and freezer zones, it does not appear to do so for the interchangeable temperature zone, unless I have missed that somehow. Does anyone know ?
